🚨 📹 ⚽ We were delighted to recently complete a project to install fire and intruder alarms and CCTV system at the incredible new £1.6m Inverness Caledonian Thistle Community Development hub in Inverness. It's an amazing facility that is set to provide a great platform for the club to continue to deliver its vital community and youth development initiatives to groups from across the Highlands. 👏

🚨 Smarter Fire Safety 🚨

We have recently completed another installation of the latest Gent by Honeywell Self-Test fire detection system. While traditional fire alarm testing can be time-consuming, disruptive and costly, Gent Self-Test is a game-changer, with detectors that test themselves, making life easier for building owners, managers and maintenance teams.

This new technology is ideal for offices and commercial buildings, hotels and hospitality venues, student accommodation and residential blocks, healthcare environments, and schools and universities.

Key benefits of the system include:
👉 Reduced maintenance time & labour costs
👉 Less disruption to staff, residents or customers
👉 Improved system reliability through regular automated testing
👉 Safer working practices by reducing the need for working at height
👉 Full compliance with fire safety testing requirements

If you’d like to learn more about how Gent Self-Test could benefit your premises, feel free to get in touch with the team on 01463 236658 or [email protected] ☎️
